What’s the craziest or most outrageous (maybe even NSFW) incident that led to someone being fired from your workplace?
  • Man that was a crazy time. My mom died before the pandemic while she was pretty young (50s, fuck cancer). She was an RN and her BFF was an LPN. The LPN got fired during COVID for not getting the vaccine and it honestly blew my mind that she was that fucking stupid. She was someone I always respected and had all the other vaccines and got the flu shot every year but for some reason she stuck her head in the sand about COVID.

    My mom was a diagnosable germaphobe so I'm pretty confident she would have gotten the vaccine, but seeing the LPN friend not get it, and knowing how conservative and traditionally catholic my mother was, I can never be 100% sure where she would have fallen on that. And I really respected and looked up to my mom. If she lived and thought COVID/the vaccine was fake, I don't know what I would have done in that situation. Kind of scary, really.

  • Science Journalism
  • Weird, I don't get any of those. I get a lot of "quantum soul" nonsense instead.

    But, I think thats because I decided that if black holes make universes, then this must not be my only life experience. And if that's true, then there is no god and life has no meaning.

    I bet the algorithm picked up on that and is trying to feed me this other junk instead.

  • Remember That DNA You Gave 23andMe?
  • They don't actually delete anything. They will throw the physical samples away but retain your entire identified genetic code.

    There's a better source out there but I can't find it atm. They hide behind an obscure FDA rule. Something about retaining genetic data for 20 years no matter what or something.

  • Trump Says He’ll Bring Back ‘Travel Ban’ and Will Ban Refugees From Gaza
  • Sorry, anyone still on Xitter is a Nazi and I can't be fucked to go through Nazi garbage to determine what is real and what is Nazi propaganda.

    Of course Isntreal is blocking aid to Gaza, they've been doing that since they bombed the border crossing at the very start of the genocide.

    What I doubt is that this is somehow against gesticulates vaguely U.S. law, whatever the fuck that is even supposed to mean in this context. Or that the US is somehow obligated to stop munitions into Isntreal. Or that a soveirgn nation is somehow beholden to gesticulates vaguely U.S. law. Or that this could even be done without handing the election to Donnie on a silver platter. I can hear it now, "SEEEEEEE THEY HATE THE JOOOOOOOOS! I WILL CRUSH PALESTINE LIKE THE GOOD CHRISTIAN I AM".

    Sorry I don't believe every bullshit thing I see on the internet.

    Also, lmao at

    1. Smug Liberalism
    2. ??????????
    3. Genocide

    The US needs to withdraw all support for Isntreal and hold war crime hearings for Netanyahoo, but not because some asshole on Xitter said so.

  • Tank Rule
  • Tankies will tell you that because he was never seen or heard from again, that means that the Chinese government set him up with a nice retirement package and he lived happily ever after!

  • The US regime just executed another innocent black man.
  • I'm agreeing with your conclusion but not with your reasoning.

    You reason that since it looks like he might be innocent, he shouldn't have been executed. Extrapolating from this yields that you also believe that if you felt he was definitely guilty, he should have been executed.

    I'm saying that because this uncertainty exists at all as a concept the death penalty should be abolished. Its impossible to prove someone's guilt 100% in these cases, therefore the death penalty is immoral. Not just in this case but in every case.

  • Programming in simple 4 steps
  • I would do

    class MyClass:
        def __init__(self, value):
            self._whatever = value
    
        @property
        def whatever(self):
            return self._whatever
    

    Personally, I would type hint all of that but I'm just showing how you can do it without types. Your linter should be smart enough to say "hey dumbass did you mean this other thing"? Also since we didn't create a setter you can't arbitrarily overwrite the value of whatever so thats neat.

    And I'll just say before I post that I'm on mobile and I'm sorry if the formatting is fucked. I'm not going to fix it.
